Just like asking if you want fries with that, an estate agent in Spain is offering house buyers a divorce lawyer with their house purchase!

We know that divorce and buying a new home are the two most stressful things you can go through, but do we really have to do them at the same time? The Spanish estate agents seem to think so, and are giving the couples the option of a free divorce lawyer with every house purchased.

Presumably that’s one divorce lawyer for each couple? There could be a conflict of interests there.

The thinking is that many couples can’t afford to get divorced so they stay together, the offer of a free divorce lawyer gives them that option.
